Ib, MONDAY, JULY 30, 1810. ''‘'Ve have very little to add to 'the intelligence which we yesterday communicated • to out Readers from-Spain and Portugal, Lord WELLINGTON'S dis patches, being dated toe t it 1), the day after the Sur render of Ciudad Roderigo, tney can of c.,nrse, con tain no iulutmation respe6ling any subsequent move ments of 'te French. BUONAPARTE has so repeat edly announced his intention of invading Portugal, that we have 'very little doubt that MASSENA had e . 'rders to make the attempt as soon as the fall of Ciudad Roderigo would enable him to employ the whole or his force for the accOmplis:.inent of that object. - Since we wrote the preceding article we find that Dispatches were, tin, day received by Government from Lord WELLINGTON,- dated the 18th invant. Head-gilarters rrtnained at •AlVerea. These Dis patches speak highly of the spirit and skill displayed by the Spaniards' in th,: - defence of Ciudad Rodrigo . , Avhicli did not surrender till farther resistance would have been utterly hopeless. GoveTurnent aho recti%ed this day Dispatches from Cadiz, dated 14th, but 'they cont‘iiu no- thing of importance. 'The particulars respecting the capture of ,the -tattle convoy have been received 41 the app-itrs that most of these '.cesvels,.if not all, were fortign vessels ; .that they could eahily have .been protected by the British force, if they had been .incitned iv make any resistance, but that they silt fered thernse.;ves to be taken without any effort. Some . more Portuguese, Papers arrived last from which ,ke have .padd some extraats. They cOrtra;n p.irticuhrs of the death of Col. TALBOT, who fell wink, g.lll•ltitly charging the enemy at the • head of his dragoons. It has been said, that the.lite Manifesto of Louis Buo:lApAß-re is likely to . be bigot) , injurious to his Imperial brother, inasaluch as it will lessvn PUBLIC OPINION in his favour on the Cunt:neut. But the only public opinion" respecting him was general detesta tion, and this Was excited by every tiling diogracefUl to human nature. His treatment of his brother,. bad as it was, is a trifle compared to the almost 'numberless enormities which have marked his con duet-ever since his first appearance in public life ; and it is well known that, in proportion to his rise , - -in power. and importance, his curse has been marked byincreased turpitude. Indeed, the different steps of his elevation have been new‘atis of flagiti ousness.' It may, however, be thought that such behaviour to his own brother, 'and to the poor stif f:4h% Hollanders, wi►o-hate patiently submitted to all his oppression, may add contempt to g the horror in which his character is held i but it has long betil known that he is ptierly destitute of all natural sen timent, and hence the Proclamation of Louis will only excite pity far him, aacl for the Hollanders; but is not calculated to ope7ate any change in the opinions of mankind; which were before sufficiently adverse to 'the Usurper, who appears in surpass in guilt any other upstart, whose thibus have ever been recorded in the history of tyranny. , We this day received Barbabes Papers to the ult. from which we have made a few extras. Yesterday morning his MAJESTY, PriliCeSSeS"-AU GUSTA and SOPHIA, took their usual morning ride till twelve O'clock; and were. accomptinied by Lord WALSIN'GfIAM, Lady :COLLYE - R, Generals GARTH and WYNYARD, and CClbild TAYLOR. His MAJESTY expected in town to-morrow, to hold a Court at lb& Queen's Palace. A naval promotion was expected to be announced in the Gazelle of this night. We are sbrrjr to learn -that a respectable house at the we.t,end of the town stopped pyinent this morning. A General Court .Martial has lately been held at Brightb:),'OnCorporal Robert Canis, in the ,Oxfprd- . shire Regiment of Militia, on charges pieferred against him; as under, viz. • I. For having on different occasions pildeavoured ►o s.xcite a spirit of di content and dissa. isfaction, by attempting to p:rsuade Ghe men of the Oxford shire R .of Militia that they ha] been tie_ frauded by their Colonel of certain articles, .viz. shoes, sto( ks, Sze. 2. For having al4o sooke disresp-_ , 6lrul of his Colonel and oilier Officers, parliculariy on the 24th June last. S.

Upon which charges the prisoner was found guilty of the whole, and is sen tenced to'receive 1000 lashes, .and to "be reduced to the ranks. • A ship, named the Success, was brought into Hull on Friday, lead e d w i t h w h eat and yarn. She was cut out of Runde, in the Island of Borithohn ; •on the 18th ult. by 18 seamen and Marines, in the boats belonging iohisrvi yesty's doopiFoodiark,Capt.W,lts. The Success was uuuud from .f ,o London, ai . td had been ca , , , tured by the "Danes, who hal' taken 26 lasts of wheat out dr her. The Officers and men in the IPoodjUrk's boats puthed tyld,y into the har bour, reserving their fpe until nea!ly aiongsiJe of the prize, when the) nrec{, ands instantly ::carded her. All :he crew •ot the Success, except one the , ;, leaped overboard, and swim: , to the shore. The captured vessel was nearly unrtgged, and 1y.11' 5 , within pistol-shot of, two batteries, which ,cont-• menced - a heavy fire upon her, and killed one Bri m!. seaman and a marine, and wounded four others, before they could get her unier weigh. Twenty two privateers of diti,reht sizts were at the time laying higher up in the harbour; three of the nearest of them fir'd several. shots, and sailed in pursuit of the . Success. The captors waited their approach with coolness, and, 'whet., near enough, fired tvLo of three voai,:s of Small arms, aril d two D.ll, , q, whcal the privateers gave np the cnace. The Marlborough Packet, that so gallantly beat off a French private r other day, On he. pa.sage from Lisnon, vc as comiii..nd e d by her Chief nite, Mr. JAMES ; Capt. BULL, her Commander, having remained at home. Mr. Jaikps, has heen,biou2ht up in the Packet trade, and has distinguished him-. self before in defending the same vesiet 'West Indies about two years and a halt ago, hen he. en gaged and heat off, after an aM ion of five hours, -a French privateer of 14 guns. Toe privateer he lately beat off, in the middle of 'the action, hoisted the Bloody Flag, which was answered by the Marl borruigh with three cheers. Mr. JAMES surely de serves promotion. On the 27th instant the Duke of Marlborough, pacr.et fell in with a French privateer, in kit. 40. 12. long. 7 t 3. She was one of a large class; mount jug 16 eightet‘n-pouriders, and' two long bow guns. The packet was of iiiferior force; she however en gag.-d the enemy for two hours, and .until, by a for tunate shot she tut away the privateer's top-mast, which immediately sheerod wit° the Northward.-- The packet suffered Much in her 6 tigging,-.and from. the shot-!,oles id her hull below, site bad several feet water its her hold. Ail the passengers hell:Ned manfully on the occasion, except two, who skulked below, 'and -deciin,d to take any part in the ac tion. The rest assisted at the guns and shared in the dangers of the engagemi-nt. The report of the safety of the True Briton India man was revived yesterday. A Gentleman, w hoar rived as a passenger in.the China feei, writes to. his friend that he learnt at St. Helena that the Captain ofthat Indiatilatt.had commit cased to the Gover nor at bombay his arrival in distress at Cochin.—• One of, the first honses in town, coaccrned in India con coerce, ha* received similaraccounts. • - . • Th;..- Fleet trout China sailed from 'thence the sth' March, and left - St . .: Helena , .2811 i May off the Cape of.

The Cidfaells accommpattied the Fleet down the China Sea, when she proceeded to Bom bay to be docked, being very leaky and incapable of receiving a cargo for England. , ",• A young Gen,leman arrived in town yesterday front Hrill incl. He escaped in a potatoe.boal,, and was three days on his passage, He gives a most melancholy report of :he ondition to which the people in that devoted country have, been reduced by their tame submission to the tyrant. The Fiend) .troops sent in to keep them down, are in a state of nakedness, and they help themselveS at pleasure to every thing they want. The people are totally broken down in spirit, and are quite at the mercy . of their oppressors, even for food, as the. markets are entirely under the controul of the soldiery. All the ' 1 Dutch troops are marched away, and are to be sent to Span, which is vegarded as the certain grave of every man who goes thither. _.-zckinson; who' was convicted at the last.

During last week, and while the faith ful were celebrating the mystery of our redemption, and imploring at the foot of the altar assistance in theSe trying times, there. fell in:o the hands of the Government, through •an act -of Divine Proince, a number of Proclamations, which they infamous Jc.; seph Butinaparte had sent to America by faithless emissaries, eTeally ignorant as himrelt. • These produnations ..abounding with "promises, threats, foulishfies,„ pefidy, and brutality, met the reception they juitly merited, it being , ordered that they should be committed to•the flatnei, which was done yesterday morning,. with all the solemnity Usual in cases of flagrant delinquency.

The whole square was lined with tro6ps of cavalry and infantry, and a concourse of Jeasi 100,000 persons filling the vact extent of this square, the tops of houses, steel.iles, and..balconies, who had united _to prshounce the public anathemas with which a religious and faithidi nation condemns in its heart a tyrannic -usurper, who in his dreams thinks it his. 'Destruction to the buonapattes, and live Ferdinand VII. resounded through the air at the moment the vile Proclamations were thrown into ille fife.
